Hello,

i have been trying to get information from the english statement but there are 2 fields i cant see to find, Request Line and Paid type from the PDA.PARTS

can anyone give me a hand?

As far as paid type goes, your going to be using SALE-TYPE. Rather its cash or card, if the SALE-TYPE is cash, there is no updating it once the invoice is printed. If the customer pays card, it will still show cash. To make this accurate you will have to ask cash or card before printing the invoice, and change the sale-type accordingly. The request line, I'm not sure what your talking about. Maybe your PDA.PARTS files has more items in the M/DICT than mine has, but if you enter ?LISTDICTS PDA.PARTS, your terminal will display every M/DICT item in your PDA.PARTS file. (yes you can add LPTR to that) You can also open a support case with ADP anytime and they will add just about anything you want, and they can add it to RPG too.

I added SPACE and #ITEMS to my PDA.PARTS file. If you find it useful open a case.

thank you that helped, but basically I want to find out what type of sale that invoice had (C, W, I) and the request line is to attached that particular part to a particular RO, saying i have 1 car and did 3 services (changed tire, oil and A/C) those are 3 lines and each line have its own parts that I used.

do you know what i mean?

Maybe wrong but what you want could be seen in RAP.
I use it to see what is sold in each labor type then can break each one down from there.

Sorry for my ignorance but what is RAP and where can i find it?

I don't know too much about RAP. I know you can usually find it in inner city or "urban" settings. I'm sorry, I had to do it.

Anywho, that is a service report I think it is only available through a service account. WIP is a file you can access on the parts end. I have not played with it ever, but I think that might help. I don't know if you can get it to spit part numbers out though, only sales.

You know how it goes; Can't spell crap without rap..........

Yes in RAP (service profitability) you can see breakdowns of each labor type, labor sales and part sales in various breakdowns of C W I.

You could also play around with the service daily sales summary, as it can be set to Cp, Warranty or Internal and can see breakdown of what was sold on each line.

You will need service access to use both of these.

i dont see to build a report with RAP, i usually do RPG for reports and this is what I would like

I have not seen anywhere in the parts file where CP, Warranty, or Internal is identified.
I use the service side for this.
